No Work Capability done

No Work Capability done was created by Bryando
Applied for New ESA in December and today got a letter to say from March will be on more money as placed into the Support group.

Never had a work capability assessment- this odd? I am on DLA and a student- however the new ESA form doesn't ask about DLA or student status- only work from what I can recall.

Has the DWP made a mistake- hoping to avoid a long wait on the phone to them.

Thank you.

Hi Bryando

I don't think you should worry. People don't always have a telephone or face-to-face assessment. Sometimes they have a paper-based assessment and are awarded from the information and evidence on the application, as you seem to have done.

I only did the online application and sent a fit note from GP. Bipolar.

Suprised I got placed into the support group with no work capability form being filled in.

Hi Bryando

It does happen, but if you're worried, you can always ring and query it.

I have never had a WCA and was placed straight into the support group on first application where I have remained ever since. Not everybody has a WCA.
